Once only in my life have I seen an ideal hunter's paradise; a region were the game was an plentiful as big and as bold. as the most thrilling hunters' stories have ever pictured it. It m ob years ago, when the rough for­ tunes of my youth left me for a fort­ night at Tacamcs. Tacarues, or Atacames, lies on the western coast of what is now included in the State of Columbia, South Amer­ ica. I was the surgeon of a whaling ship which put in there for a supply of fresh food, to check the attacks of scurvy, which had made its unwelcome appear­ ance among the crew, and we were de­ tained by the sickness of the Captain for two weeks. The place consists, or then consisted, of not more than eighteen or twenty houses--mere oabins--built of canes and set on posts about ten feet high. -The port is an open roadstead, into which, when the wind is southwest, roll the long swells of the Pacific, breaking in white surf upon the shore. But the town, though low-lying, is beautiful; with high, irregularly notch­ ed hills towering above it in the back­ ground, and the dense tropical forest closing in around it on all but the sea­ ward side. •' A small river,' nearly dry at the time we were there, flows in from up among the mountains. It had been a time of intense drought, following great heat, and nearly half of the poor people were sick of a species of local cholera. After treating a few oases, I learned its nature and cause, and by liberal drafts on our medicine-ohest, I was able to cure nearly fifty persons within a few Joi the "tigers,n as the people there called the large black and yellow jaguars of Bitt^slipjpoaed that the fear in which the iltlnWUnb stood cl those animals iwHilttci mainly from their lack of fire- thus earned the real, heartfelt grat- titude of the entire population. Never was a young man more popular in a little hamlet. I had to but express a wish, when half-a-dozen would set off of their own accord at my service. Among my patients was the little daughter of Don Pechos, the leading "estanciero," or owner, at Tecames, him­ self but a half-breed, however, though postieflsed of large herds in the back country. Little Dion*, or "Tita," as they oalled her, lay very low indeed in the last stages of the disorder which I was for­ tunate in being able to check. On the fourth day, when the child had mended visibly and evinced an appetite for broth, her father, a rather grave man, who had before given up all hope of her recovery, came to me too much moved to speak for the deep joy he felt; but in the grasp of his hand there vim something which expressed more than words. Next morning came » mere tangible evidence of has gratitude--though like a true gentleman he made it an entirely secondary matter--in the shape of a beautiful black horse, fully broken to the back, together with a fine saddle and hridle heavily ornamented with sil­ ver. This fine animal Don Pechos begged me to accept and nse as a "triflng token" of his regard and friendship; and I ac­ cepted it, of course, only for the time I was at Tacaines. Vasoo was that horse's name. He was perfectly broken to the sad­ dle, after the S}xvtua2i method; and it is to one of my rides on Yasoo's back that my story relates. Another of my patients was an In­ dian, named "Jaca"--that, at least, was the name he bore at Tacames--whose history was a most singular one. He was not a South American, but had heen kidnapped, along with three others, from a tribe far up toward Ore­ gon, by a whaler which had been left short-handed on that coast. The captain bad enticed these Tmiiaiwi on board his ship by promises of pres­ ents, then seized them and hastily set sail. Two years later, on a voyage home to New Bedford, the whaler touched at Tacames, and Jaca was set ashore with­ out ao much as "thank ye" for his ser­ vices. Jaca had gained considerable knowl­ edge of English, and, Indian though he was," I found him a not uncongenial spirit, and possessed of keen native in­ telligence. Here, as in his far-off northern home which he would never see again, Jaca was a hunter, and made use of a tre­ mendous bow, which I could no more draw than I could have bent an old Bo- man catapult. As soon as my duties as physician grew a little less urgent, I rode out every morning on botanical excursions • -for the flora there was new and most interesting to me--and on hunts with Jaca. Since first landing, I had every day heard the yelping of wild beasts out in the woods, sometimes sounding like a pack of hounds in full cry, and at night their howls, barks, and roars were in­ cessant. Jaca's brief but very graphic and mat- ter-oi-fact little stories of adventure, added still further to the Best with which I set off with him. Nearly every morning upon mounting Yasco for one of these trips, Don Pechos jroul«I gravely advise me to beware of There was not a serviceable musket in Tacames. * I had a good short-barrelled double gun, with a strap for slinging it across myshonlders. Percussion caps had then but recent­ ly come into use. There were a number of roads or bri­ dle-paths leading back from Tacames through the forests. For a mile or more around the village there were low, dense thorn thickets, overrun with vines; then large trees, standing close and very tall, took the place of these, and here the chatter of monkeys would always assail our ears. The monkeys, or apes of this district were the giants of their race, and every bit as large as the seven or eight-year- old children in our city streets, with strangely aged, hideous faces. Half-a-dozen would often be gambol­ ling in a tree-top together. On catching sight of us passing un­ derneath, one of them would give droll, sharjb cry, like "Hailoa." Then all of them would come bound­ ing and swinging down by the branches and lianas to peep at us. . Their ugly, yet comically grinning visages seemed to say-- "How d'ye do?" Several times they were uncommonly bold, stretching down their long arms to snatch at our caps and the silver bangles on Vasco's headgear; and so large and formidable did they look that three times I onslung my gun. But Jaca, laughing heartily, said-- "No tiraV' (Don't fire.) At each fresh start of mine he would laugh the harder and say-- "^ey fun. Dey trick. Dey like look you." Jaca's name for these monkeys was "woodfolks," and he alwayB spoke of them as if they were human beings. Upon the morning of my adventure we had come out iuto the forest--Jaca walking rapidlv by Vasco's side--and passing by a valley, between two moun­ tains, had emerged into a very heavily timbered tract beyond, where there was no undergrowth. The height and density of the great nut-trees entirely shut out the sky, and a faint yellowish green light cast its pale tints adown the dusty mauve trunks. It was a singularly dim region, quite cool and profoundly still, with not a sign of animal life, save where here and there a long blueish-colored snake wriggled lazily from beneath Yasoo's feet. For two leagues or more the path led throughtthis darkened and unbroken forest, then opened out upon some nat­ ural meadows, along a small winding river. It was a beautiful place. Bunches of cane and clumps of palm studded the long open intervals, and these were festooned with vines and climbing plants, many of which were in bloom, disclosing great gorgeous cluster of blossoms, and filling the air with perfume. Here were hundreds ,of ruby-tinted birds, singing joyously, blending their songs with the harsh squalls of parrots, But some straight tracks in the mud, where we forded the river, had absorb­ ed Jaca's attention. He wished to follow Umm; ami- M I chdse to ride along the meadow, to col­ lect specimens of the, to me, new plants, we agreed to separate for the time and meet there two hours later. For a mile or two I went on through grass so high that it brushed Yasoo's sides only drawing rein here and there to pluck a bunch of flowers. Several times I heard the cries of wild animals off in the woods, and saw where they were running in the grass. At length I came to where a heard of fifty or sixty horses were feeding, keep­ ing close together, yet all moving on at a pretty good paoe. The jaguars, I was told, dare not at­ tack a heard thus compacted together. It is only when one imprudently strays off that it is throttled. This was one of Don Pecho's semi- wild droves. As I passed, Yasco neighed repeated­ ly, and a colt--a lithe, beautiful, black, three-year-old--trotted out from his fel­ lows and joined us. I struck at it with my whip, and snap­ ped my fingers to scare it back; but still it trotted about and followed Yasco--pawing in the grass, snorting, fairly rearing in its playful antics. The heat of the day was coming on, and I presently drew up beneath the great drooping frouds of a msriti palm, to be out of the scorching sun-rays for a minute ere turning back; and I recol­ lect that the black colt, frolicsome as ever, was nibbling at Vasco's jowl, when suddenly both horses started vio­ lently. At the same moment I heard a slight crash of brush out in the thick swamp, a little to the right of the palm. The ears of both horses were bent in­ tently forward, and I felt Yasco begin to tremble and his sides to dilate under me. Every nerve and muscle in his body seemed* to grow tense and hard as wire. At first I saw nothing, and patting my horse's neck, spoke soothingly to him, at the same time reaching round for my carbine. But before I could slip the strap, both Yasco and the colt wheeled, quick as lightning, and ran. At the same instant I heard two loud roars, but was so nearly unseated that my horse had run several hundred yards with me before I could sufficiently re­ cover my balance to look back. One glance showed me what a fate I had escaped. For bounding along after the horses were two enormous black and yellow jaguars. In their eagerness they seemed to fly rather than run. 1 Their bounds were not high but long. They seemed to skim the ground, their enormous tails standing out straight behind, and their sleek, mot­ tled sides fairly glistened in the sun. As they flew along, each gave vent to an eager, yelping noise, in chorus to the other; and so rapidly did they come on, that though the horses were running for life, 1 expected to be evertaken. • I might have unslung my piece and shot them. But I confess that in my terror of falling into the clutches of these mon­ sters, I did nothing but grasp Vasco's neck and mane with all my strength. Nor could I have checked or reined him a hair's breadth had my life de­ pended on it. The jaguars, as I knew by their yelps and the glimpses I caught over my shoulder, were at the horses' heelf. And my gun flying up by its loose strap at every bound, nearly be*| j|p off. sped through grass and bodies, thought was that Yasco would ltd we had previo«n^r pasBed, together the horses might lie "tigers." As we my only join the bird we had and that drive off the But the herd was not now at the place where I had seen it On we rushed in our wild flight, till suddenly we came to a slough in the grass and reeds. With his first leap Yasco went Belly deep into it, and I was thsowa headlong among the rushes into the soft asi The horse floundered on, partly over me, and got through; but a frightfully Bhrill scream from the colt close at hand, made my blood run chill. Dashing the mud and water from mv eyes, I struggled up and saw, through the reeds, the young horse lying mixed a few rods below; while on the opposite bank crouched one of the jaguars wrig­ gling and twisting its body like a huge oat. For a moment it poised, then jump­ ed thirty feet or more and alighted plump on the horse's back. Another fearful cry from the poor creature, blended with the tiger's fierce growl as it buried its fangs and claws in the colt's glossy hide. So savage, so 'piteous a-spectacle, I have never seen before or since. For a moment there was a tremen­ dous struggle, then the horse sank pas­ sive and limp with One wild, deep moan. The other jaguar, without joining his mate ia the attack, was waiting on the bank, walking up and down, lashing the air with its long tail, and venting its eager thirst for blood in the most ter­ rific roars. Too busy to notice me in the reeds, the uglv, yet splendid brutes, growled and gloated over their victim. But what would have been my fate had the horse got through the slough ? Truly, his life was given for mine. Slowly I crept out of the bog and stole away, drenched and plastered with mud from head to foot. I had gone half-a-mile, perhaps, along my morning track through the meadow, when I met Jaca. He had seen Yasco go past with empty saddle and flying stirrups, and was coming to look me up. Seeing my condition, he first stared, then grinned broadly. It took him few words to jmderstand my adventure, and he at once proposed to go back and kill the tigers. So urgent, and so confident was he of Buccess, that I at length consented to it; and we went cautiously back to the edge of the slough. The jaguars had drawn the body of the colt out. of the slough, and were feasting on it. One of them, indeed, seemed already to have got his fill, and lay outstretched a few feet off; the other was still gorg­ ing himself. "Tira," Jaca whispered. "Take the one eatin' horse. I had recharged my gun heavily, put­ ting three balls in each barrel. The distance across the slough was not more than ninety or a hundred feet. When I fired, the beast gave a con­ vulsed leap off the horse, and fell with a loud yell in the grass. The other started to his feet, glared across for a moment, but before I could get aim, went out of sight through the grass and bushes. Meantime Jaca was boldly wading the slough. Drawing his knife, he approached the disabled tiger and killed him. We then withdrew a little, thinking thn nthpr MMit thov ifcaoW. for heard it roaring at a distance. It did not approach, however, and af­ ter stripping off the skin from the one we had killed, Jaca advised a speedy retreat from the spot. It was a toilsome walk for me back to Tacames. Tasco had arrived several hours be­ fore, and Don Pechos had mustered a party to search for me. An Ingenious Table.

During the past year the enormous increase of certain maladies Is simply appalling. While the total number of deaths has diminished and the death rate on most diseases has de­ creased still it is tar greater in one or two serious disorders than was ever known be­ fore. More people died ia the city of New York in 1883 from Bright** disease of the kidneys than from diphtheria, small-pox and tvphoid fever all combined! This scarcely seems possible but it is true, and when it is remembered that less than one- third the actual deaths from Bright'8 disease are really reported as such, the ravages of the malady can be partially understood. The immediate query Which every reader will make upon such a revelation of facts, is: What causes this increase? This is a difficult, question to answer. The nature of the climate, the habits of life, the adulteration of foods and liquors, all undoubtedly con tribute; but no immediate cause can he cer­ tainly assigned. Often before the victim knows it the disease has begun. Its ap­ proaches are so stealthy and its symptoms so obscure that they cannot be definitely fore­ seen and are only known by their effecta Any kidney disorder, however slight, is the first stage of Brifrht'n disease.

A story is told of Charles XII., which illustrates the eccentric hero's peculiar­ ities. characteristics which were after­ ward strangely emulated, if not im­ itated, by the famous Russian solr.ier, Marshal Suvarof. During a forced inarch toward the foe, a grenadier of the King's guard Btole a spitted turkey from the hut of a poor peasant. The latter sought audience of the King and made complaint oi theft. Beading for the soldier, a huge fellow six feet and several inches in height, Charles sternly regarded him for a moment and then asked: "Is it true, comrade, that you have siolen this poor man's dinner, you a great brute big enough to eat him and his whole family, body and bones ?" The grenadier, probably thinking that lie might as well be hanged for a sheep as a goat, rudely made answer: "Sire, I have done him less harm than you did his master, Augustus. Yon took a kingdom from him while I have only taken a turkey from this fellow." "But, my friend," returned the King, "I per­ ceive a difference between us. I can hang you for stealing a turkey, but you have not the power to punish me for seizing and giving away an empire"--a tine and forcible illustration Of regal authority. It is added that the grena­ dier was granted a pardon in view of his spirit and wit, upon making pay­ ment to the peasant of his exorbitant price for the turkey.-- The United Service. £ains; loss of vigor; lack of nerve power; regularity of the heart; disordered daily ha'nts; imperfect digestion- many other symptoms are the kidney disorder, even thougl no pain in the region of thi ha'nts; imperfect digestion--alt these and are the indications of h there may be pain in the region of the kidneys or in that portion of the body. The serious" nature of these troubles may be understood from the fact that Rriglit's disease is as certain to follow diseased kidneys as decomposition follows death It is high time the doctors in this land, who have been unable to control kidney troubles, should be aroused and compelled to find some remedy, or acknowledge one already found. The suffering public needs help and cannot await the tardy action of any hair-splitting code or incorrectly form­ ulated theories. If the medical world has no certain remedv for this terrible disease let them acknowledge it and seek for one outside the pale of their profession. For the discovery of this remedy and for its ap­ plication t o this disease, the people of this city; the people of the whole land; not only those who are suffering, but those who have fjriends in danger, are earnestly and long­ ingly looking. The above quotation from the Mew York Tribune is causing considerable commotion, as it seems to lift the cover from a subject that has become of national importance. The alarming increase of kidney diseases; their insidious beginnings and frightful end­ ings and the acknowledged inability of phy­ sicians to successfully cope with them may well awaken the greatest dread of every one who has the slightest symptoms. It is fort­ unate, however, that the surest relief is often found where, possibly, least expected, and that there is a specific for the evils above described we have came to fully be­ lieve. Within the past two years we have frequently seen statements of parties claim­ ing to have been cured of serious kidney troubles even after hope had been abandoned; but in common with most people we have discredited them. Qqjfvi recently, however, a number ot prominent and well-known men have come out voluntarily and stated over their signatures that they were com­ pletely cured by the use of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cura Most people have been aware that this medicine has an un­ usual standing and one entitling it'to b classed above proprietary articles generally; but that it had accomplished so much in checking the ravages of kidney disease is not ?o generally known. Its great worth has been shown, not only by the cures it has effected, but also because a number of base imitations have appeared in the market, fraudulentl}- claiming the valuable qualities of the original Safe Cure. If it were not valuable it would hot be imitated The above may seem like an ultra indorse ment of a popular remedy, but it 1b not one whit stronger than the facts admit What­ ever assists the world toward health and consequent happiness should receive the hearty indorsement of the press, and all friends of humanity. It is on precisely this principle that the foregoing statement is made and it merits the careful consideration of every thinking reader. Monkeys' Tricks. The tigers of India are fond of monkey-meat and the monkeys are hot fond of being eaten. They, therefore, match their brains against the tiger's cunning and strength in this way: The monkeys drive away tigers and leopards by assembling in all their strength upon the trees beneath which the tiger is lurking, shaking the branches with might and miii and pattering down upon and about their would-be devour er such a shower of dry sticks, twigs and leaves that the latter is forced, with an angry growl, to quit his lair and seek other and quieter quarters But no peace is he allowed so long as he remains in their vicinitv.

On the other hand, of peafe and beans exposed freely to the air, 90 per cent, of the former and 98 per cent, of the latter proved fruitful.
